Revive has been banned from ARAM for a long time. Like, a looooong time. I don't recall if it was truly an original rule, or if it was one of the things that was quickly banned from the game because of what it did to it (kinda like the removal of the snowball items and fortify back when it existed).

Revive would win games. Even if the other team is doing better than you, some well timed Revives would prevent them from making any decent push. Its also a free tower/inhibitor if used after winning a team fight. It would be ridiculous.

As others have said, you'd end up seeing Revive on just about everyone - it would not be balanced.

Given its huge cooldown I'm not sure its all that op but it certainly can stall out games and at certain times be very strong and get close to op. Also I dont think barrier is a must on aram anymore with the nerfs.

Play Dominion, you'll see how much of an impact revive has. A lot of the low tier players don't use it, but if you're good enough to hit the upper mid tier, everyone uses it. It's a total staple to the game mode because of how much of a comeback ability it is.
